Michael Jordan trained 5 hours a day while also filming 'Space Jam' from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Michael Jordan didn't have much down time in the summer of 1995. The Chicago Bulls superstar spent the offseason filming the movie "Space Jam" at Warner Bros. Studio in Burbank, California — plus, he was trying to get back into peak basketball shape after leaving the NBA toJordan was 32 at the time and already had three NBA championships under his belt. He told Warner Bros. that he needed a court to work out on when he wasn't on set.

Jordan made the most of the "Jordan Dome," as the facility came to be known. Even though he was filming six days a week from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., the athlete managed to fit in about five hours of practice. "We had the idea, if we invited the best players in the league out here, he would get a chance to see everybody before the season started," said former Bulls teammate B.J. Armstrong. It started as a way to do scouting reports on his competition — and then, "it became like a thing: Everyone had to come out to Warner Bros. Studio to play against Michael Jordan."

Jordan's ability to scrimmage at such an intense level after a full work day was superhuman, Miller added:

What we learned about Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls from 'The Last Dance''The Last Dance' was a much-needed presence in our time without live sports, and it taught us a lot about Michael Jordan and the Bulls, too.
